Description

WATSONVILLE, CA — "A County Fair with Ocean Air" will be the new theme of the 2022 Santa Cruz County Fair, the fair announced Tuesday. The theme was submitted by Watsonville resident Sandy Roberson, and was selected from more than 130 community entries. As the contest winner, Roberson will receive a VIP Family Pack for 4, which includes one parking pass, four admission tickets, four carnival wristbands, and $100 for concession stands. "This pretty well describes who we are and where we are fortunate enough to live, work, and celebrate," Fair Manager and CEO David Kegebein said of the theme in a statement. The theme will guide each department in designing the space. The fair is now searching for an artist to turn the theme into a poster. The Santa Cruz County Fair will be held Sep. 16-20 at the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds. Thursday marks the last day to purchase $100 for the Fairgrounds Foundation Crab Feed. One ticket buys an entire crab, half a barbecued chicken, a tossed green salad with Italian dressing, garlic bread, a cookie, crab dips, crackers, and clam chowder. For every two meals, guests over 21 can add a bottle of wine. They can be purchased here. Guests can pick up their meals at Crocetti Hall at the Fairgrounds (2601 E. Lake Ave., Watsonville) on March 5 from 2-5 p.m.
